Hello, I want to take a time to talk about the currency in the game and why im think is so bad. If you have a comment please post below.

5 types of currency 3 worth it.

There are 5 types of currency in the game with different use each one:

So, first of all im not against of paying real money for exclusive item, instead i love the idea, its make you expend your money in things you really like and make you look cooler, BUT my problems is these paying currency only have to give you vanity stuff and shouldnt change the gameplay itself.

    You can convert astral diamonds to zen to respec. It's just not cheap.

    Indeed you can, but astral daimonds seems to be the only not paying currency in the game that is worth it, because you should able to use gold for in-game gameplay, but gold is pretty much useless.

    I like the fact that in game achievements can have a real life monetary value placed on them.

    The only thing that bugs me about the currency is that I have to spend coins (gold, silver, copper) to buy materials for professions. Then I sell my creations in the AH for Astral Diamonds. Of course I could vendor them for loose change but I sell them for 100s of thousands of AD (350k a shirt for example). But to get 'money' for more mats from the professions vendor I have to adventure because no one uses coins to buy things from the AH.

    I really wish they'd drop coins altogether and let the NPCs sell stuff with AD. Having a gold standard that uses astral diamonds seems pointless. Maybe I'm just missing the point though. It just seems to add a layer of tedium to the entire thing.
